Clean and close to train

  • June 28, 2007
  • Rated 4 of 5 by a traveler from Travelocity.com
This hotel, which is clean and comfortable, is a short walk to the train station. Our room was small but well appointed. The workout room is small but clean and functional.

Hotel Adler Cavalieri

Everything in Florence is within walking distance of everything else, so when I tell you that the Adler Cavalieri was convenient, you have a way to judge. Since we arrived by train, it was especially convenient, only a few block’s walk from the train station. I can’t say that the area was the best in town – we heard rumors of drug deals close by, but I can say that I didn’t feel unsafe walking there.

The hotel was rated four stars, but compared to the four-star we’d had in Venice, I wouldn’t rate them the same. The room was pretty – the ceiling was painted ornately, but it was just more plain than I was expecting. The bathroom was laid out funny, I thought, with hardly any room to sit on the toilet – as your knees banged into the shower. The shower was a box, which was designed to keep the water in, but essentially flooded the bathroom whenever you showered. The water drained well afterwards, but you were still wading around for a while after showering.

The front desk staff didn’t speak the best English, and seemed annoyed whenever we stopped by with a question. The most memorable moment was when the power went off in the middle of the night and the emergency spotlight came on. So bright we couldn’t sleep. Try explaining all this in broken Italian at 2 a.m. But we were given another room after about an hour of trying to figure out what was going on. I was a little put off by the second room we were given, only because it was so much nicer than the one we were in originally. The shower didn’t leak, etc. It didn’t look to be much of an upgrade, but apparently it was. Too bad we were only in that room for a couple of hours to sleep.

While part of a package deal, I calculated the stay to be about 110 € per night, but I’d haggle or get an upgraded room to avoid the lake in the bathroom. It was comfortable enough, and I wasn’t in the room that much, so I’d be o.k. with someone’s choice to stay here.
